hungary's election is likely to return viktor orban to a third consecutive term in power his feet as party consistently polls in the lead as much as anything else because of a divided opposition on the left on the far right that has found it impossible to cooperate with each other reducing the chances of a meaningful challenge what will be watched extremely closely however is whether he is able to regain the absolute majority that he's used in the past to alter the constitution to change the media laws the electoral law gradually over time reducing the boyce's of dissent in the press and in civil society this is a country in which a majority of voters probably don't support the government but probably aren't able to beat it at the ballot box this is a country in which corruption is rife in which public services in health and education are crumbling but in which the public discourse is dominated by stories of fear and hate put out by the state run media to do with refugees to do with george soros the billionaire philanthropist and to do with outside meddling powers it is a system that

it's certainly heading in a certain direction which is a victory whichever way you measure it for viktor orban and the ruling party here it could pretty much go two ways now either towards a two thirds majority the majority he's enjoyed for the last eight years and indeed the electoral commission looking at these figures so far looking at the turnout and the areas in which turnout was high is predicting that he will retain that two thirds majority they're saying one hundred thirty four seats are a hundred ninety nine others are suggesting maybe less that he will retain simply an absolute majority which means of course he continues to govern he doesn't have to get hindered by any sort of coalition arrangements and so on he remains in power but without a crucial ability to change the constitution which he's been quite happy to use up to now so this is the contest now between those two outcomes but a victory for victory or ban is not in doubt. with a two thirds majority if he does maintain that what would that mean in terms of what he would want to do with the direction that hungary is heading. w
